Transcriber's Notes:
The column, "Date and Cause of Death" was eliminated from this transcription as there
were no deaths on this passage.
The original lister did not number the passengers and did not provide a recapitulation
at the end of the Manifest.
An asterisk (*) is used to refer to an item in the transcriber's notes, which
further explains the entry.
A question mark (?) is used for letter/letters that cannot be read because of the
quality of the document. Where possible a suggestion is given in the Transcriber's
Notes of what this letter/letters may be.
A circumflex (^) is used to indicate missing letters in a name or word. The original
lister showed this by writing the final letter smaller and raising it above the line.
50 This area of the manifest is very light. Possibilities: Carrigan, Cavigan,
Cavingan.
74-76 This initial capital on the surname is not like any other that the original
lister used. It could be "T", "L" or "F". The other letters are unclear. Some
possibilities for this name: Lonsly, Tomby, Tonsly, Fonsly.
85&86 Both are identified as Laborers, which is probably an error.
101 Inadvertently listed as a male.
102&103 Inadvertently listed as a female.
106 Inadvertently listed as a male.
110 This name is lost at the fold of the document.
119-121 Surname possibilties: Shern, Shear, Shears Actual age of passenger #121 is
7-1/2 years.
138 & 139 Paper, Poper.
170 Listed as a female, but has a distinctly masculine name.
171 Listed as a male, but has a distinctly feminine name.
172 Listed as a female, but with a masculine name.
